Worried about a child?

How you can protect children from abuse

A leaflet for anyone concerned about the risk of child abuse

Are you worried about the safety of a child?

Do you know a child that's always bruised?
Do you know a child that's neglected or withdrawn?
Do you hear a baby crying constantly?
Do you know a child that is left alone, dirty, hungry or inadequately dressed?
Do you know a stressed parent who cannot cope?
Do you know a child that is constantly 'put down', insulted, sworn at or humiliated?

Every action counts.

If you have concerns, there is someone who will listen. Our leaflet explains the steps that can be taken by anyone worried about the safety of a child.

This Arabic/English leaflet is suitable for the rich diverse Arabic speaking communities in the UK, including communities from Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen, Tunisia and Libya.
